Chaenorhinum origanifolium 'Summer Skies' (Fairy Perennial Snapdragon) 4 in.
This sweet broadleaved semi-evergreen trailing groundcover features abundant snapdragon-like flowers with blue-purple petals and yellow throats. An incredibly long-blooming and repeat-blooming plant, the flowers appear May through July, and may put on a second flush in the fall with deadheading, making it a super choice for butterflies and other pollinators who need extended bloom times for a variety of nectar sources.
Ideal for hot, challenging sites, Fairy Snapdragon will grow ~8-12 inches high by 12-16 inches wide in full sun and most soil types. Use this to edge a garden bed, in containers or hanging baskets, or as part of a mixed border, placing it near the front. Since the foliage is semi-evergreen, it’s a great complement to more ephemeral plants such as Coreopsis, Solidago, Aquilegia, and native Erythronium grandiflorum.
